The above statistics make for interesting reading. However, there is one question which I am asking myself: How many of those interviewed ever stopped to seriously think and consider the rationale behind the various religious beliefs? In this matter, which is evidently of very great importance, how many ever took the trouble to delve into the thoughts of the great religious leaders to see if they can agree to what these thinkers say. It is easy to discard all belief in the supernatural order under the influence of the pleasures and distractions of modern society.

Don't be fools! This technology is not new. It is happening and has been for decades. You can research this subject and educate yourselves. It's real and it's going to be used more frequently as time goes by not only by the US. Many nations are using and have been for a long time, weather manipulation. You can research that as well. Check out Zbigniew Brezinski, Between Two Ages pages 56-57 and Dr. Gordon J.F. Mac Donald, How To Wreck the Environment, Unless Peace Comes, ed. Nigel Calder

Sex abuse scandals are nauseating. They are certainly damaging to the Church. However, to leave the Church because of these scandals would betray a very poor perception of what the Church is. If one is Catholic, one would believe that the Church is the one arc of salvation for all, and that the validity of the Church does not depend on the moral fibre of its members or temporal leaders. The real Head of the Church is Jesus Christ Himself; and all the rest are sinners. The only thing that makes sense is to stay in and work and pray for the conversion of all.

In 1997 the United States Secretary of Defense spoke of the ability to conrol weather and to set off earthquakes. Combining that fact along with the disaster training for Haiti the day before the earthquake and the arrival of 10,000 US troops the day after the earthquake add up to coincidences that are beyond coincidence.

Sasquatch says its true, as does the Loch Ness Monster and Atlantians, so it must be true. I do believe that Mighty Mouse was involved due to the droppings found at the scene, but cannot confirm at this time.

This is comes from the country that gave the world one of it's greatest evils. Adolf Hitler and his Brown Shirts. She probably believes Al(I invented the Internet)Gore. However, it is great to know that this nutcase is not a reflection of all Austrians.. I wonder if Austria will take Arnold Back ?
